| Introduction by William B. Jones Jr. |
|
"Be always sure you're right, then go ahead" - that was the motto he lived by. He was a sharpshooter, scout, Indian fighter, hunter and congressman. He lived bravely and he died bravely. He was the symbol of the great American frontier-its courage and its daring, its honesty and its humor. He was a hero in his lifetime; he became a legend after his death. But no legend can match the excitement of his life - the life of Davy Crockett!
